Even on my old C2D@3ghz the game ran with the same performance. It is something like this: 640x480: >30fps 800x600: >24fps 1024x768: >18fps |

There is no source port, because the source does exist, but is not available due to legal reasons. There is Blood 2, but ... well, you better take DOSBox. Runs great on vanilla dosbox. I never tried the GOG version, but that's your best bet. |

One can only hope that mess finally assumes room temperature so Volition can get their property back for pennies on the dollar. |

I would definitely take a Blood update - just stick with the original game.
As for Shogo, I found it a bit rough when it was released and do not think it really holds up at all. Well, Magic Claw! is still good for a laugh, but that is about it. It just seems like a really mediocre game. Wanting sequels to Shadow Warrior, Descent, and Outlaws, Ray |

Blood has to be in my top 5 favorite all time games. But after Blood 2 I'm skeptical. Still, if they would do a level by level remake with the same gameplay and somewhat better graphics I'd buy it. |

This is one of those games that I just knew would be revived, especially after hearing about the Rise of the Triad remake (that was quick!). Old school FPS's seem to be coming back into fashion, which is cool. Like others, I'd prefer Shogo to this, but beggars can't be choosers, so I'll be glad to get Blood too. EDIT: Why stop wishing? Can I have a NOLF 3 while we're at it?
I was a big fan of Jason Hall back in the day - such a great developer. I'm thrilled to see him still around making games.
